Re: Powering curtain motors...



You can do this OK but it might be better to use 3 pin 5 amp sockets, the
circuit can be supplied from a 5 or 6 amp breaker as normal for a lighting
circuit, you don't have to label it. I have several of these providing
connection for display cabinet lights via LD10s.
